Fiorentina - Inter Milan Serie A Prediction

Overview

Fiorentina are in good form at the moment. In the last 10 matches in all competitions, they have won 9 times.

Coach Raffaele Palladino's team is also unbeaten in 9 matches in Serie A, winning 5 consecutive matches. Before round 14, the home team Artemio Franchi ranked 4th on the rankings with 28 points.

Meanwhile, Inter Milan ranked right above Fiorentina, with the same 28 points and a goal difference of +17 but scored more goals. The blue half of Milan also showed its strength with a series of 12 consecutive unbeaten matches in all competitions.

Not only did they achieve great results in Serie A, coach Simone Inzaghi's team also showed their mettle in the Champions League. They are one of only three clubs unbeaten after the first five matches and are currently second in the group.

The match between Fiorentina and Inter is considered to be evenly matched as both teams possess formidable attacking lines. However, Inter Milan is slightly better thanks to their better head-to-head record.

Specifically, Nerazzurri won 4/5 of the most recent matches and defeated Fiorentina 6 times at Artemio Franchi Stadium. It is likely that Inter will once again make Fiorentina regret.

In particular, Fiorentina will have to keep an eye on Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez. The Argentine striker has scored 5 goals in his last 3 meetings with Fiorentina.

Human resources situation

Lucas Martinez Quarta and Amir Richardson are both sidelined with injuries for Fiorentina, while Moise Kean and Edoardo Bove will feature in attack.

Lautaro Martinez missed Inter Milan's last Serie A game but will start against Fiorentina. As usual, he is expected to partner Marcus Thuram in attack, while Stefan de Vrij will feature in defence.

Expected lineup:

Fiorentina: De Gea, Dodo, Comuzzo, Ranieri, Gosens, Cataldi, Adli, Colpani, Bove, Beltran, Kean.

Inter Milan: Sommer, De Vrij, Bastoni, Bisseck, Darmian, Frattesi, Barella, Calhanoglu, Dimarco, Thuram, Martinez.
